1299063 2012-09-05 06:17:00 governmental incompetence is being upheld! what is the opposite of an oxymoron?? I differentiated because of the different scales in effect. Ordinary incompetence can be, for example, being unable to write an essay in an exam without using txt-speak, or being unable to hold a conversation without liberal sprinkling of the word "like". Whereas governmental incompetence is the ability to stuff up something easy on a monumental scale, with no accountability... johcar (6283)
1299064 2012-09-05 07:45:00 I have just had a phonecall from winz apologizing for sending the letter (damage control?)
So I have to give them some credit for that I guess!

1299067 2012-09-05 09:05:00 Well, they may not have known who you were, or what you are, but at least they knew where you are.
Perhaps you could help them along by gently advising them where to go?

1299070 2012-09-05 21:34:00 Yes, we all know that doing that to someone who has a few months to go before they are 65 is ridiciloosl.

I heard that WINZ is phoning those peopel to apologise.

But I wonder what is the cut off date that they have decided on before the rule will apply.

6 months to go ?
Age 64 ?
Age 62?
Age 60 ?
